Rote Flora

The brick building features black walls decorated with political slogans, graffiti art, and protest banners hanging from its windows at Schulterblatt street.

Built in 1888 as Flora Theatre for concerts and operettas, the structure became a squatted social center in November 1989 after local residents opposed its commercial redevelopment.

The Rote Flora functions as an independent social center, offering spaces for concerts, political meetings, exhibitions, workshops, and community gatherings without government support.

The building contains multiple facilities including a music venue, information shop, social movement archive, bicycle repair workshop, and community kitchen.

During the 2017 G20 Hamburg summit, the building served as a central meeting point for demonstrations that gathered thousands of participants.
